EASTENDERS is already filming its explosive Christmas special and Albert Square has been covered in festive Christmas lights.

With the nights drawing in fans can look forward to the no doubt dramatic Christmas in Walford and now set pictures have revealed the stunning light display that has been set up.

String lights illuminate the Square, Market Street and the Albert.

Meanwhile fans are convinced a show favourite character will "return from the dead" in an explosive Christmas Day storyline.

Serial killer Gray Atkins – played by actor Toby Alexander Smith in the BBC One soap – recently got away with murdering his own wife Chantelle as well as barmaid Tina and Kush Kazemi.

But viewers are adamant his crimes will come back to haunt him in true soap fashion saying one of his victims LIVED to tell the tale.

In an incredible end-of-year twist that would spark the downfall of Gray fans have predicted Tina survived the attack and has been waiting to return to expose him for what he did to her and Chantelle.

One viewer wrote: "I’m convinced Tina isn’t dead. Maybe she’ll return Halloween or Christmas. #EastEnders."

Another tweeted: "RT if you think Tina Carter is coming back at Christmas."

At the very least viewers think all his crimes will come to a head in an epic Christmas episode.

Another viewer said: "The Carters are going to find out about Tina at Christmas."

Fans know that the walls are already closing in on Gray after his boss Laura Awowinka dropped the bombshell that she knows he’s an abuser. 

Laura got Gray drunk in recent scenes so he would embarrass himself at a works drink by offering him a free bar.

Laura later spoke to Chelsea at Gray’s house, warning her that the lawyer abused Chantelle – and that he was probably looking for his next victim.

Viewers were also gobsmacked that murder-victim Tina made a shock reappearance in a grisly flashback earlier this year.

Gray found Tina's earring in his car and suddenly heard the voice of dead Tina in a terrifying scene.

The last words she said to him before he killed her replayed in his mind: "Look at you, it's pathetic, you are pathetic."

He turned around and saw a Tina's lifeless body laying dead on his sofa.
